HQ Company USASETAF

Headquarters Company, United States Army Southern European Task Force (HQ Company, USASETAF), was established in 1955 to provide command and administrative support for US Army operations in Southern Europe. Based in Vicenza, Italy, HQ Company played a central role in coordinating logistics, intelligence, and operations for US forces in the region, particularly during the Cold War and throughout various NATO exercises. Over the decades, the unit adapted to shifting strategic priorities, supporting humanitarian missions, peacekeeping operations, and later, contingency operations in Africa. Today, HQ Company remains an essential element of US Army Southern European Task Force, Africa (SETAF-AF), continuing its legacy of enabling joint and multinational missions across the European and African theaters.
